“Hot Rod somehow managed to average 17 HRs the past three seasons despite averaging just about 107 games a season. With the move to Pittsburgh on a team where he should get a full season of being potentially being, the man, behind the plate. Barajas has a chance to eclipse the 20 Home Run mark which is remarkable for how late he goes.” @Muntradamus, Mar 9th |
